1045 Seeking the Sword at Xuanyuan Hill (1/2)

Chapter 1045 – Seeking the Sword at Xuanyuan Hill

Ouyang Shuo had two reasons for calling Zhang Liang over.

First, to arrange him to enter the Cabinet with his position as Administrative mentor court head secretary.

”The Administrative mentor court needs to participate greatly in Imperial Court decisions and pay attention to it all the time. I know that Zifang does not have too much interest in Imperial Court politics. I want you to enter the Cabinet not to debate with them but to observe,” Ouyang Shuo explained.

When Zhang Liang heard that, he nodded, ”I understand!”

When Zhang Liang was an advisor to Liu Bang, the Great Han dynasty's structure was not complete, so he came into contact with all the highest decisions of the Great Zhan Dynasty.

Great Xia was different. With a perfect system and administrative method, they had numerous ministers and advisors. Although the Administrative mentor court could accept reports from the Imperial Court, it would be better to enter the Cabinet and watch directly.

Zhang Liang understood that, which was why he agreed so quickly.

It was still the ideals of Ouyang Shuo, and he hoped that all the troops that enter Great Xia could improve and not stick to the old rules. Even the Strategy Saint Zhang Liang had room to improve.

Secondly, set up an official communication research center.

The current Administrative mentor court was really star studded, but all the members were strategists. If Ouyang Shuo was still building up his empire, so he naturally desired them.

Great Xia now needed to build up and defend his empire.

As a result, he had higher demands of the Administrative mentor court. Apart from setting up battle strategies, they also need to research the internal problems of the dynasty and raise up feasible revolutionary ideas.

The official communication research center was built for this purpose.

Apart from strategists, Ouyang Shuo was going to bring in more professionals including experts of economy, culture, and education. On the basis of investigating research, they would come up with more scientific and professional ideas.

Simply put, this research center was the knowledge bank of the dynasty.

When Zhang Liang heard that, he was both excited and ashamed.

He was excited because the king's words opened up a new window for him, widening his foresight and welcoming a new vast land.

He felt ashamed that he did not find the problem and needed the king to worry about it.

”Do not worry my king, I'll do it well!” Zhang Liang promised.

Ouyang Shuo smiled, ”I naturally trust Zifang.”

In a short day, Ouyang Shuo had adjusted the structures of the two core parts of the dynasty. It did not look like much, but it would have a huge influence on the future of the dynasty.

Ouyang Shuo was so anxious to do so because he felt pressured by the advance of Handan City.

With competition, there would be pressure, such words were totally right.

...

Gaia 5th year, 5th month, 23rd day.

After dealing with the Secret Document Pavilion and the Administrative mentor court, the next morning, Ouyang Shuo brought his Personal Guards and reported to Luoyang, where Great Han dynasty was at.

Along with him were Jiang Shang and Zhang Yi.

Ouyang Shuo's group was here for a friendly visit and to solidify their cooperation. In the Zhongyuan Region, the Great Han Dynasty was undoubtedly a hugely important presence. Especially with Handan City about to establish the country, Ouyang Shuo hoped to have a good relationship with Great Han.

Ouyang Shuo's main goal was to used Luoyang to proceed towards Xuanyuan Hill in Zhongyuan Province to seek the Xuanyuan Sword that the Yellow Emperor held.

As the sword was a country weapon, Gaia rules said that if the country war leader could wield it to battle, they would automatically obtain a buff that would help them in the country war.

Seeing that the country war month was impending, Ouyang Shuo naturally needed to settle the matter.

Before this, the Chinese adventure gamemode players were still guessing what Ouyang Shuo would do to get it, or maybe he would just give up on it.

After all, the Yellow Emperor was secluding himself and did not meet outsiders. Even his tribe was really low profile and did not appear apart from when Great Xia established its country.

To the Chinese, the Yellow Emperor held an exceptional position. Although Xuanyuan Hill was located in Great Han territory, the Hanwu Emperor did not dare to have any thoughts and just listed it as a prohibited zone.

If the Yellow Emperor was unwilling, no one would be able to get his sword. Even Ouyang Shuo did not have the utmost of confidence and was just trying his best.

The next morning, Ouyang Shuo and his group left Luoyang and set off for Xuanyuan Hill. When the Luoyang players got the news, they followed, either joining in for the bustle or holding other thoughts.

Seeing that, Ouyang Shuo could only invite Hanwu Emperor to arrange a group of guards to follow.

As this was Great Han territory, it was not convenient for Ouyang Shuo to bring his Divine Martial Guards. Seeing that Ouyang Shuo was so thoughtful, Hanwu Emperor naturally repaid it and arranged an army to protect him.

If something really happened to Ouyang Shuo in Great Han territory, he would have no face.

The huge group waltzed out of the city.

Xuanyuan Hill was located east of Luoyang, between Luoyang and Chen County. It was a really special strategic location. It was an abandoned land and a really earthy place.

The group rushed, and at noon, they arrived at Xuanyuan Hill. Looking out, the infrastructure here was similar to that of Yellow Emperor city during the Battle of Zhuolu.

”Who's here?” The city guard asked.

Ouyang Shuo dismounted from his horse, cupped his fists, and said, ”Yellow Emperor and Fire Emperor descendant Ouyang Shuo specially comes to visit!” Coming to such a sacred land, Ouyang Shuo did not dare to act big and called himself a normal person.

”Why are you here?” the guard asked.

Ouyang Shuo replied, ”To ask for the Xuanyuan Sword.”
